I have been taking my daily FBG years now......routine

Customer Question

I have been taking my daily FBG for two years now......routine physical showed a 113 FBG two years ago.....have changed my diet, added significant exercise and lost 35 lbs. since then......daily readings for FBG for past two years have been in the 80'sto low 90's......last physical (2 months ago) showed an FBG of 92 and A1C of 4.8......this morning my FBG was 119, then fifteen minutes later (after a cup of coffee) was 79!!.....is my meter malfunctioning?!?....or should I be concerned??

Your A1c is excellent which is a better measure preceding 3 month average blood sugar.

Do not worry.
